Crownover works on fielding drills on the UW field.
Veronica Crownover found her very own field of dreams.
The softball slugger, who will be a freshman at Coupeville High School in the fall, spent a chunk of this week taking part in drills at the University of Washington.
Under the watchful eye of Husky head coach Heather Tarr and her staff, Crownover and other rising stars worked on advanced infield play and hitting.
Crownover, who patrols first base, got help with footwork, glove work, throwing and transferring the ball.
At the plate, she and others worked through drills that help to improve fundamentals and perfect the swing.
The lessons learned, coming on the UW field and at the Dempsey Indoor Practice Facility, made for a fun time.
“The weather was perfect and it was so exciting to see Veronica on the UW field with Coach Tarr,” said proud mom Kelly Crownover.
